Okay, this has officially grown on me. Love this now. The "1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, drink" parts is what sold it for me. Yes, and the explosion at the beginning of the chorus.

I can't help but pronounce the word 'chandelier' as 'chandeli-eer' now. Anyway, I love this song.

I'm hoping with the Ellen promo and once those 10 or so Voice performances above it drop it can hit top 20 on iTunes.

Great. What's not that great its today update. After the treatment Human is receiving, it will be very very annoying if Chandelier receives the same

After what they made with Human i'm not even sure the rise on itunes will get the expected effect, but there's no reasons to be negative yet

This is a pretty good track. But, I'm not counting on pop radio to make it a hit.

The song is good, but for personal use only. I can see why it wouldn't be a big hit on the charts or radio. Sia is house music for me.

The fact that the lyrics are not about a silly party or throwing your hands in the air doesn't make this less pop

She never said it wasn't pop though? Just that it wouldn't chart well on radio, which is pretty obvious. The vocal alone makes it pretty unradio friendly, I'm surprised its done as well as it has.

Sorry, but the vocal is exactly the same that make Titanium a top 10 hit. This is not Breathe me, wich is a fantastic song but not commercial, Chandelier is not formulaic pop, but a lot of songs with a less radio friendly sound (Pumped up kicks is a perfect example) were hits in recent years. this even have a pretty catchy chorus and a very addictive hook

Sia. On Ellen.
It's like she's finally noticing that the general public wants her out of that fictitious rock she made for herself. Now is her time to be swinging on chandeliers.
GET THAT PROMO GURL.
